This is a large prewar Japanese hanging scroll featuring members of the Imperial Family together with senior Imperial Japanese Army and Navy officers. At the top of the composition are the words “Nation” and “Defender” , while the outside of the rolled scroll is inscribed. The classical expression “Kanjo” refers to a person who serves as a shield or stronghold protecting the nation. In this scroll, the phrase presents the Imperial Family and senior military leaders as the men entrusted with defending and supporting the Japanese state. The upper section includes Emperor Meiji, Emperor Taisho, Prince Arisugawa, Prince Fushimi, and other members of the Imperial Family with strong military connections. Beneath them is an extensive gallery of senior Army and Navy officers, many shown in full dress uniforms with decorations and medals. Many portraits also include English names, making the individual figures easier to identify for overseas collectors. One particularly interesting clue is the apparent absence of Crown Prince Hirohito, later Emperor Showa. Hirohito was born in 1901 and became an increasingly prominent public figure during the Taisho period, especially before becoming Regent in 1921. His absence from a composition devoted to the Imperial Family and leading military figures suggests that this scroll may date from the late Meiji to early or middle Taisho period, probably around the 1910s, although an exact production date cannot be confirmed from the scroll alone. This makes the piece more than simply a collection of portraits. It is a visual document of how Imperial Japan presented its monarchy, military leadership, rank, honor, and the idea of national defense during the early 20th century. Approximate size: Overall: 55.5 cm × 184.2 cm Printed image section: 45 cm × 120 cm There is age-related wear, staining, rubbing, and other deterioration consistent with an antique paper scroll. No storage box is included. A striking display piece for collectors of Imperial Japanese Army and Navy history, Imperial Family material, military uniforms, decorations, and early 20th-century Japanese militaria. Own a Piece of History. International Buyers – Please Note.
Published in 1938 (Showa 13) by Yubunsha in Tokyo, this is an original Japanese wartime photo book titled Shina Jihen Shashincho – literally, China Incident Photo Album. ” “China Incident was the term commonly used in Japan at the time for the conflict now generally known as the Second Sino-Japanese War. The book contains a wide range of photographs documenting the early years of the conflict, including Imperial Japanese Army soldiers, machine guns, artillery, tanks, aircraft, naval vessels, occupied cities, and civilians. Some of the most striking images show a Japanese tank crossing a temporary bridge, military aircraft in action, warships, and troops operating in the field. For collectors unfamiliar with this type of material, this is more than simply an old military photo book. It is also a piece of wartime mass media. Unlike an internal military manual or classified document, this book was published by a civilian publisher for the Japanese public. It therefore offers a direct look at how the war in China was presented visually to ordinary people in Japan in the late 1930s. The publication information at the back identifies the book as a genuine period publication from January 1938, edited by Kenji Kashima, published by Jutaro Imura, and issued by Yubunsha in Tokyo. The original inspection/censorship stamp paper is also still present. The front cover depicts a Japanese military aircraft attacking targets below, while the rear cover shows armed soldiers silhouetted against the sky. Even the cover design strongly reflects the atmosphere of wartime Japan. Because this book is more than 80 years old, it shows age-related wear including toning, stains, rubbing, tears, and edge damage. Please review the photographs carefully for condition. This is not simply a collection of old photographs. It is a surviving record of how the war was seen, photographed, and presented to the Japanese public in 1938. Own a Piece of History. International Buyers – Please Note.
